DRAGON EMPEROR

CHAPTER 24 Mystical Sword City, Wei Ziming

As the name implies, the green scaly horse is green scaly. It had the blood meridians of demonic beasts and was undoubtedly powerful as it was able to cover a distance of 1,500 kilometers in a single day.

Over ten days later, Lu Ming and the weary Qiu Yue arrived at the Mystical Sword City which was only 25 kilometers away from the Mystic Sword Sect. It was the closest town to the school and was very busy with activities.

Its population and size were ten times larger than Fire Wind City.

With groups of merchants coming and going from various places in the Blazing Sun Empire, this region was a busy region. The main streets were wide enough to contain ten animal carriages in a row while the side streets were filled with shops. Sure enough, it was a lively scene.

This was the first time that Lu Ming and Qiu Yue had been in such a large city. They scanned their surroundings with burning curiosity like two villagers who had just entered the city.

After walking for half a day, their stomachs began to rumble. The duo found a restaurant and entered the building.

The restaurant is three stories tall with an elegantly decorated interior. They proceeded to the third floor where almost half the table was already filled. Everyone's eyes twinkled as Lu Ming and Qiu Yue arrived.

Lu Ming had a slender body with distinctive features. He was wearing fitting clothes that accentuated his heroic figure. On the other hand, Qiu Yue had a graceful body and an ageless face. They seem like the perfect couple when walking together.

Two young men sat at one of the tables. Of the two, one was wearing a brocade suit with a jade belt hanging on his waist. He looked like he was about eighteen years old, and he carried the impression of a young prince.

Other people were about the same age, but he was skinny and dressed like a servant.

As the brocade-clothed youth looked at Lu Ming and Qiu Yue, his eyes twinkled. More precisely, he was staring at Qiu Yue with sparkling eyes.

However, his eyes shone with killing intent as his eyes turned to Lu Ming.

“Fresh flowers in the garbage pile!” muttered the young man.

Of course, Lu Ming and Qiu Yue did not notice the gazes of the people around them. After they found a table beside the window, they ordered some dishes as well as a bottle of wine and started eating.

“Young Master, Mystic Sword City is really crowded!” said Qiu Yue while looking at Lu Ming's misty eyes. His cheeks flushed as he lifted his cup and took a sip.

Lu Ming raised his drink and downed it as well. "That's right. There were only two days left before the annual recruitment day of the Mystical Sword Sect. Every young talent in almost 2,000 cities from the east side of the City of the Scorching Sun has come.”

At that moment, the brocade-clothed youth raised his cup and approached them with the skinny youth behind him.

“Young lady, my name is Wei Ziming. May I have the honor of knowing your name? I hope you give me the privilege to drink with me, ” he said as he raised his cup. However, he did not bother to hide his glittering eyes that were observing every inch of Qiu Yue's body while completely ignoring Yu Ming.

Qiu Yue instantly felt a little uncomfortable with the way Wei Ziming looked at her. He felt a hint of disgust as he said, “Sorry. I just drank a while ago, so I don't feel like drinking it now!”

Rejected by Qiu Yue instantly, Wei Ziming's face instantly darkened.

“Poor girl, what do you mean? My young master asked you to have a drink with him because he really appreciates you. Don't waste the privileges you've been given!” the skinny young man beside Wei Ziming shouted before he flicked his head towards Lu Ming. “Why are you still sitting there, son? You better get out now. My young master wants that chair.”

Lu Ming furrowed his brows. Both men were really excited. He had not even said a word, yet they already wanted him to leave.

“Where did this barking mutt come from?” Lu Ming said in a cold tone as he raised his cup and took another sip.

“How dare you talk to me like that, boy !? You are nearing death!” the skinny young man shouted with a bad expression on his face. He lunged towards Lu Ming's throat with his fingers curved like eagle claws.

His extremely sharp fingers whistled through the air as he made an instant deadly move. If he managed to strangle Lu Ming's neck, it would definitely crumble.

He's too arrogant. Even though he was only a servant, he wanted someone to die just because of one disagreement.

“You are only a Second-Class Warrior Realm. Scram!” Lu Ming shouted with a simple lash in his palm.

The palm of the hand advanced slower than its claws, but it was the first movement connecting. It landed right on the skinny young man's face, and he screamed in pain as he was thrown. Soon, he landed hard on the floor.

“Who is this kid? He had the guts to hit Wei Ziming's accomplice. How dare!”

“Wei Ziming is the eldest son of the superior city, the City Lord of Fire Guard. This kid is done.”

“I'm sure the boy doesn't even know where Wei Ziming came from, or he wouldn't dare hit Wei Ziming's waitress. After all, you should check it before damaging it.”

The discussion surrounding Lu Ming sounded in his ears.

He suddenly came to see the light. This duo was from the Guardian Flame City. No wonder they are so arrogant.

There were over 10,000 cities in the Blazing Sun Empire that had different levels based on their respective levels of strength. These levels are mainly categorized as Inferior, Mediocre, and Superior.

Fire Wind City was considered an inferior city, which most people probably had never heard of. However, the Fire Guard City was a Superior city with a great power whose name was famous throughout the Blazing Sun Empire.

"ah! How dare you hit me, boy?! You die, you die!” the skinny young man started screaming in panic.

Wei Ziming's face turned even darker as his eyes gleamed with a cold intent to kill. “Brat, did you know that I am the young master of the main family in Guardian Flame City?” he bragged as he looked at Lu Ming.

"I just found." Lu Ming replied calmly.

"Oh? So, you just found out, but I guess it's not too late. Now, get on your knees and apologize to me. After that, slap yourself 30 times, leave this woman, and get out. In that case, I will consider releasing you,” Wei Ziming said confidently. He believed that Lu Ming would definitely agree to do this after knowing who he was.

However, he was stunned at the next moment as Lu Ming only glanced at him and said flatly, “I think your mutt is the only fool. You are even more boring than him. Get out of my sight right now, or I'll send you flying too.”

Everyone in the restaurant was silent. Wei Ziming was a wild person, but who would have thought Lu Ming was even worse!?

"Bad boy! You are nearing death for challenging me!”

Angrily, Wei Ziming stretched out his palm to slap Lu Ming in the face. His palm contained a large amount of Essential Qi, which undoubtedly contained the cultivation of a Five Grade Realm Warrior.

However, Lu Ming caught his wrist even before his palm could connect.

Broken up!

The sound of a bone crack was then heard followed by Wei Ziming who let out a terrible scream of pain.

"ah! My hands! Let go of my hand, you are useless! I'll make sure you die without a tomb!” Wei Ziming howled furiously.

The slap!

At that moment, Lu Ming slapped his face, stopping Wei Ziming amidst his howling.

Wei Ziming looked at him in disbelief with wide eyes as if he had been slapped sillyly. He never expected Lu Ming to actually dare slap him.

“Call me, if you don't go now, I'll send you flying too!” Lu Ming's calm voice repeated, then...

The slap!

Another slap rang out, landing on the other side of Wei Ziming's face. By then, his face had swelled like a pig.

Lu Ming unleashed a wave of Essential Qi and threw Wei Ziming towards the stairs. “Go or I will break your limb,” threatened.
